Hello all,

TL;DR: how can I format the suggestions listed by selectrum when I ask
to insert a citation with org-cite-insert?

Longer version: I use selectrum a my completion engine together with
marginalia.  This works very well for most selections I wish to
make.  However, for org-cite, the display has the author list truncated
(to 25 characters; screenshot image attached, assuming it doesn't get
removed by the mailing list server) and the search only appears to
consider the truncated text.  The result is that if I am looking for a
paper by an author (say Kitchin ;-)) who is not one of the first few
authors on a particular publication, I won't be able to find that
particular publication (sorry John).

I have no idea which bit of the tool chain does the
formatting/truncation or whether I can make the search ignore the
truncated information.  I hope somebody has some suggestions.  I started
looking at bibtex-completions, which does mention org-cite (at least in
the most recent version), but none of the configuration suggestions
seems to have any effect.

Any pointers welcome!

Thank you,
eric
